At this time, the Communities of Opportunity Application Process is closed.

Growing Food Connections selected 8 local governments in urban and rural communities across the US to receive free technical assistance and guidance on how to develop tools and policies that support local farms and improve food security.

Although we selected only a limited number of communities, the Growing Food Connections website has free resources available to all communities.
